"Our national team has not been able to win in 10 matches under the leadership of Fernando Santos. Frankly, the failure is understandable. Even if we win a random victory or draw in between, it can only be misleading. We have been saying for years that there will be failure. This is just a result, not the end yet. Difficult games await us in the upcoming World Championship qualifying games with France, Ukraine and Iceland. It may be a surprise if we score points in these matches. Maybe at home against Iceland. Our national team may finish the group without points for the first time since independence."
Idman.biz reports that these words were said to Sport24.az by football expert Yashar Seyidov.
The experienced expert spoke about the current situation of the team: "Currently, there is no development in our national team. True, head coach Mr. Santos sees development, but we cannot see what that development is. Maybe he thinks they will beat France, Ukraine and Iceland. He thinks like the French socialist utopians of the past. They were able to convince the French people not to worry, milk would flow from the rivers in France. Santos forgets that it is not the Middle Ages now.
We can only hope for something after 4 years. That is only if the work adopted by AFFA regarding the development of football is started. It took the Azerbaijan Mini Football Federation 8 years for our team to become world champion. Orkhan Mammadov was able to cover this road in 8 years. My request to the AFFA leadership is to start the strategy adopted regarding the development of football in a short time. Maybe we can do what Orkhan did."
It should be noted that the Azerbaijan national team, led by Fernando Santos, lost to the Hungarian national team 1:2 in Baku. On June 7, they drew with Latvia.
